IB Diploma Results!
09 July 2010
IB Diploma results brought success again this year with all girls achieving their Diplomas and 4 students being awarded bi-lingual diplomas. A much smaller cohort nevertheless still produced an average score of nearly 35 points and everyone achieved at least 30 points. We are delighted that girls are now heading off for exciting degree courses ranging from Anthropology to International Relations with Japanese. Head girl, Jessica Duncan, proved how hard-working and dedicated BHSG girls are; after a hectic year of office she is now off to study English and History at Leeds.
GCSE Results
Girls have once again achieved some truly excellent results in their GCSE examinations this summer. 29% of all results were at A* grade, 57% A*-A and 80% A*-B.
Carla Barberio, Rebecca Murray, Hannah Short and Surina Taneja all achieved 10A* grades, Tessa Forbes and Chloe Scott 9A* grades, Connie Fan, Yasmin Jamil and Frances Whittaker-Wood 8A* and Emily Myrtle, Lauren Roberts and Georgia Austin Greenall 7 A* grades.
Eighteen girls were sitting their examinations having spent, in most cases, only 3 years studying in English, and yet between them they amassed results which closely mirrored the overall percentages: 21% A*, 54% A*-A and 76% A*-B.
Although I am sad that our boarders are unable to progress to Bedford Girls' School for their Sixth Form studies, I am delighted that most of our very top achievers will be going on to take A level or IB courses there.
I wish every girl who left Bedford High School at the end of Upper 5 the very best of luck for their future studies.
